Facebook tracking feature to launch
Thursday March 11, 2010
Facebook users will be able to track where their friends are at any time with a new location feature due to be launched next month.
According to The New York Times, the social networking site plans to unveil a feature allowing its millions of users to share their current location with friends.
There have been mixed reactions to the new feature, with some users fearful of 'Facebook stalking' now being made easier.
The company has previously foreshadowed the feature, recently updating its privacy policy.
It now clarifies that; should a location sharing feature be implemented, users will have a choice over whether they participate.
In similar news, a new Twitter feature will plot tweets on a Google Map, according to reports.
